RED MEN COMING
TO CONVENTION IN
LARGE NUMBERS
Ask People of Harrisburg to
Put Out Flags and Deco
rate Homes Next Week

t HANG OUT FLAGS
THE committee in charge ct
the Red Men's State con
vention, which will be held
in Harrisburg June 9-12, re
quests that the people of Harris
burg display flags and decorate
their homes for the parude which
will be held Wednesday. The
committee has financed the con
vention without asking for local
assistance beyond that preferred
by a few friends and volunteers
and asks only that the flags and
other decorations be displayed.
The Stato convention of the Red
Men, which will be held in Harris
burg, with headquarters at the Penn-
Harris, June 9 to 12, will be the
seventieth annual gathering of the
kind and the third held in Harris
burg during the past 20 years. The
committee in charge believes it will
be one of the largest in the history
Of the organization, especially the
parade to lie held Wednesday, of
which Senator Frank A. Smith will
be chief marshal.
The order has 75,000 members in
Pennsylvania. It maintains no or
phanages but it does provide for the
orphans of members, whether father
or both father and mother be dead,
bv keeping them, if possible, in their
own homes or if that cannot be done
in good homes of relatives or friends,
where the order pays all expenses
until the child is 14 years old.
The order is purely American, as
the name indicates, and is of a pa
triotic character. During the war
it placed hospital ambulances, fully
equipped, in all of the cantonments
at a cost of $150,000, raised by sub
scriptions of members, and these
ambulances rendered especially val
uable services during the influenza
epidemic.

Wheat Tractor Stops Here
On Coast to Coast Tour
: r ;
The wheat tractor which left New
York city late on the night of May
21) reached this city last night on the
first leg of a transcontiental run
I from New York to Los Angeles. This
I tour is the first ever made by a
j tractor over the road and has for its
| object a demonstration of the scr
! viceabiiity of heavy rubber-tired
| road wheels as a part of tractor
equipment. Indeed the eas with
which this now tractor was handled
| from the heart- of New York City
to the city limits through a dense
traffic surpassed even the expecta
tions of the promoters of the tour.
Encumbered as the tractor was by a
heavy trailer equipped with a "pra
irie-schooner" caboose containing
sleeping accommodations for the
crew and farming equipment tra
versing New Jersey and northern
Pennsylvania, not a little local in
terest was aroused especially among
farmers along the route who were
found working their slow-going
horse-drawn plows.
The tractor is manned by a crew
who until a few woeks ago described
themselves as Lieut. T. H. Irwin, U.
S. Army Air Service; Lieut. Robert
E. MacKenzie, U. S. Tank Corps;
Lieut. Howard S. Tiffany, U. S. Ord
nance Department, and Gus Bohlig.
Already the tractor has encountered
the most trying of road conditions
and successfully passed these tests
which lead its drivers to believe,
that they will be able to surmount!
the chassis-racking highways along J
the 4,000-mile journey.
The coast-to-coast tractor tour,!
unlike the now time-honored auto-1
mobile tours, is not designed as a ;
spectacular stunt but us a demon-'
stration that a farm tractor can he i
worked efficiently on the road as on
the field, provided it is equipped
with the proper sort of road
wheels.
L. B. Cravath, vice-president and
general manager of the Hession
Tiller and Tractor Corporation, who
was a pioneer, in the tractor field, is
the originator of this somewhat rev
olutionary idea. He believes in act
ual demonstration rather than prom
ises and optimistic statements. The
whea ttractor is equipped with road
wheels and solid Firestone tires,
which are standard equipment. At- 1

Will Call Nation-wide
Strike of the Telegraphers
Washington, June 7. President
8. J.Konenkamp, of the Commercial
Telegraphers' Union of America, an
nounced last night that he would
call a nation-wide strike of members
of 'the union upon reaching Chicago
to-day. He said that neither the
date of the proposed walkout nor
whether it would affect both the
Postal Telegraph-Cable Company and
the Western Union Telegraph and
Cable Company had been decided.
The strike, President Konenkamp
said, would be called in support ot,
union employes of the Western Ur.ion
Company in ten Southeastern States,
who were requested by him to leave
their work, following return by or
der of Postmaster General Burleson
of the wire systems of the country
to private operation.
INDICTMENT QUASHED
The indictment against John Den
chak, a hotelman from the upper
end of the county, who was charged
with selling liquor during the in
fluenza epidemic, although health
authorities had ordered that no in
toxicating drinks should be sold, was
quashed in an order by the court to
day. A true bill had been returned
a few months t.go by a Grand Jury
and the motion to quash the indict
ment followed.
. tachcd to it as a trailer which car
i ries a ti-joc-bottom plow and a set
[of wide, cleated tractor wheels for
j use in plowing and other farm work.
| These wheels can he substituted for
the rubber-tired ones very quickly,
ias quickly in fact as wire wheels
| can be changed on passenger auto
| mobiles. Within twenty minutes the
1 tractor can be taken off the road and
\ made ready for field work. The
, itinerary includes Harrisburg, Read
| ing, Pttsburgh, Canton, O.; Akron,
i Cleveland, Dayton, Indliyiapolis,
| South Bend, Chicago, and thence to
I the coast via St. Louis and the Mid
land Trail, Pikes Peak Highway and
! the Pioneer Way. At Wichita, Kans.,
in July, the wheat tractor will be
on hand for the tractor exposition
there.
One of the aims of the trip is to
demonstrate to the Government that
in case of more war being forced
upon this country, whereby defense
on a big scale becomes necessary,
tractors of the country equipped
with road wheels and manned by
army drivers can be made instantly
avaiiahlc for hauling guns and for
general transportation purposes,
cither in this country or_ another
country. Tn the past the tractor has
been considered a heavy, unwieldy
implement, primarily intended for
tilling, cultivating and power farm
ing, but the present trip is to prove
the wonderful utility of this type of
tractor for hauling on roads where
cleated tractor wheels and land
wheels are prohibited. The trip
also marks the. inauguration of an
educational campaign to dealers and
consumers throughout the country.
Oliver Chill Plows With
Tractor on X-Country Tour
Accompanying the wheat tractor
that is in Harrisburg to-day on its
way across the courrtry in the coast
to const tour is a representative of
the Oliver Chill Plow Company. Tho
Oliver plow No. 78 is being used by
this tractor in its plowing demon
stration.
H. H. Boozer, local manager of
the Oliver Plow Company, met the
tractor last evening when it arrived
here and escorted it into the city.
BERLIN EAGER
TO RETAIN HER
CAPITAL STATUS
Citizens Meet and Protest
Against Efforts to Strip
the City
J Berlin. June 7. A huge meeting
I was held here the v other day to pro
j test-against the efforts to strip Berlin
!of its status as a capital. Mayor
j Wermuth and several others painted
I Berlin as a world city of art, a city
for visitors and a city of the future.
Despite its present srnuttiness, crime
and disorder, they said, Berlin will
regain its reputation as the cleanest,
safest and best governed city in the
world. Wermuth said that further
disturbances would bring agony, and
urged all to work to improve condi
tions.
Sydicus Willner admitted that Ber
lin never was popular, especially in
Germany and that "Berlin is con
sidered a black sheep among Ger
man cities." He explained that its
position necessitated the presence of
good, bad and indifferent.
Dr. Max Osborn declared that im
perial Berlin had clogged itself with
lonely buildings and senseless mon
uments. "The real Berlin is hidden
behind these pretentious character
less things, but now there is no bar
rier to recreating it as a city of art
without parallel," he declared.

fresh onions radishes, spinach and

Berlin, June 6.—A proclamation
|by General Mangin, commander of
the French army of occupation at
| Mayence, forbidding strikes against
| the Rhenish republic and threaten*
; ing leaders of any such movements
; with expulsion, is published in tho
j Frankfort Gazette.
"The Khinclanders have been dis
cussing the interests of their father
i land for the last six months without
I disturbing public order," the procla
| mution says, "but now the German
1 government threatens them with tm
j prisonment. They have created a
, republic within the German empire
(and have sought the right of elec
i tion, in which they will have com-
I pleto freedom. There is nothing in
| their procedure which might occa
j sion protests or strikes, which dis
j turb order and economic life."
I The French have a propaganda
| fund amounting to 10,000,000 francs
I with which to further the movement
for the Rhenish republic, declares
the Karlsruhe correspondent of tho
Lokal Anzeiger. This sum, he says,
is being used principally in the
Hhineland and Palatinate and it is
being partly distributed to those
favorng an independent republic at
Landau. Mayence, Cologne and
Wiesbaden, who without doubt, he
adds, "have been bribed."
